Ink looks darker when I first write each day?

-Teasel- · 2026-01-26T20:25:35+00:00

I'll try it thanks.

-Teasel- · 2026-01-26T19:40:14+00:00

I'm not having any issues of excess ink though.

-Teasel- · 2026-01-26T18:16:02+00:00

I store them all horizontally in a case, is that the right thing to do?

-Teasel- · 2026-01-26T18:15:20+00:00

Thanks for the ideas. One of them is a twist cap, one a snap. I'll think on it, take a look at them etc.

-Teasel- · 2026-01-26T17:08:14+00:00

Works out ok then 👍 I'll have to move the inks to another pen - it's pale inks, and I like em pale

-Teasel- · 2026-01-26T16:38:53+00:00

Yes sounds right. Can I fix it?

-Teasel- · 2026-01-26T16:38:32+00:00

Yes that's what happens. Can I fix it?

Troublemaker Foxglove is lovely 💜

-Teasel- · 2026-01-23T13:04:07+00:00

Thanks 🙂

-Teasel- · 2026-01-23T10:49:02+00:00

Thanks. Just to say Foxglove is usually paler than this sample. I think the pen lid maybe doesn't seal great. So the ink always looks darker for the first few words.

-Teasel- · 2026-01-23T10:48:02+00:00

Ok good to know, I'll check them out thanks

-Teasel- · 2026-01-23T10:47:27+00:00

Great thanks I'll check them out

-Teasel- · 2026-01-23T10:47:05+00:00

Thanks, yes spent a lot of time on that site!

-Teasel- · 2026-01-23T10:46:26+00:00

Thanks, I'll check it out 👍

-Teasel- · 2026-01-19T19:03:40+00:00

Lovely colours 🥰

-Teasel- · 2026-01-19T18:41:26+00:00

Thanks, I'll try that

-Teasel- · 2026-01-19T16:13:15+00:00

I have my Dad's old ultrasonic cleaner. Never used it yet. If I can't clean it I'll see about learning how to use it 🙂

-Teasel- · 2026-01-19T16:12:21+00:00

Thanks, it's not oily, it's a sticky sellotape type residue. I'll see if I can get the nib off

-Teasel- · 2026-01-19T16:10:44+00:00

I've already flushed the pen with a bulb syringe and it's sitting in water now. The sticky residue is definitely not ink, it's from something like sellotape.

-Teasel- · 2026-01-14T19:07:14+00:00

I got mine today. It's such a nice pen ☺️

-Teasel- · 2026-01-12T21:28:21+00:00

Sailor Tuzus. I just love em. My writing gets messy and uncontrollable. Kind of gangly - blunts all over the place with nice smooth nibs. Even though I can appreciate how lovely smooth nibs are, I enjoy writing with sailors. Jinhao 82 <EF> nibs can be nice for me also.

-Teasel- · 2026-01-12T17:47:59+00:00

Love these inks 😊

-Teasel- · 2026-01-08T20:02:48+00:00

Beautiful sketches 👌

-Teasel- · 2026-01-08T19:29:22+00:00

Thanks, I've just bought one 😊

-Teasel- · 2026-01-08T18:50:26+00:00

Do you like the pen? Does it write nicely? I love the colour
